I also find it interesting that of all comments in this thread you chose mine to reply and threaten me with banning, given the absurdities that have been said above.

This speaks volumes about the moderation here. You are clearly fine with "ideological flamewar" as long as it's your ideology.

We can't read all the comments on HN, or even in any large thread, so that logic doesn't work. If you take the time to check, you'll see that we've often moderated comments that cross the line in the opposite ideological direction. Ideological rage is destructive here regardless of which charge it carries.
